While not one of the major three immigrant groups, the Welsh have received good treatment in print. See Thomas Allen Glenn, Merion in the Welsh Tract (1896; reprint, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1970) and Welsh Families of Pennsylvania, 2 vols. (1911–13; reprinted in one volume, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1970, 1991). Although known for unreliable publications, Charles H. Browning’s Welsh Settlement of Pennsylvania (1912; reprint, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1970) is a worthwhile work. It also includes Welsh Quakers.

John E. Bodnar, Ethnic History in Pennsylvania: A Selected Bibliography (Harrisburg: Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, 1974) covers published and manuscript material. Also useful is David E. Washburn, comp. and ed., The Peoples of Pennsylvania: An Annotated Bibliography of Resource Materials (Pittsburgh: University for International Studies, University of Pittsburgh, 1981).

The “big three” colonial Pennsylvania immigrant groups have all been covered in great detail in published material. Some selected titles are the following:

Emil Meynen, Bibliography on German Settlements in Colonial North America, Especially on the Pennsylvania Germans and Their Descendants, 1683–1933 (1937; reprint, Gale Research Corp., 1966) is useful, and Russell Wieder Gilbert, A Picture of the Pennsylvania Germans (University Park: Pennsylvania Historical Association, 1962) has a bibliography.

John A. Hostetler, Amish Society (Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 1983) explains the beliefs and practices of this group.

Another early immigrant group is covered in Albert Bernhardt Faust and Gaius Marcus Brumbaugh’s Lists of Swiss Immigrants in the Eighteenth Century to the American Colonies, 2 vols. in one (1920–25; reprint, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1991).

While not one of the major three immigrant groups, the Welsh have received good treatment in print. See Thomas Allen Glenn, Merion in the Welsh Tract (1896; reprint, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1970) and Welsh Families of Pennsylvania, 2 vols. (1911–13; reprinted in one volume, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1970, 1991). Although known for unreliable publications, Charles H. Browning’s Welsh Settlement of Pennsylvania (1912; reprint, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1970) is a worthwhile work. It also includes Welsh Quakers.
